4-4-2. Series & Parallel Equivalent Circuit
Impedance that is neither a pure resistance nor a pure reactance can be
represented at any specific frequency by either a series or a parallel combination
of resistance and reactance. Such representation is called “equivalent circuit”.
The component value of the “Primary Display” depends on which equivalent
circuit (series or parallel) is chosen. In normal, the component manufacturer
shall specify how a component is to be measured (usually series) and at what
frequency. Please refer to Figure 4-4.
Resistor from 1kΩ to 10MΩ: Parallel, 0.25kHz.
Resistor greater than 10 MΩ: Parallel, 0.03kHz
Unless for special reason, always select “Series” for capacitors and inductors.
This has traditionally been standard practice. For very small capacitance or
inductance, select a higher test frequency for better accuracy. For very large
capacitance or inductance, select a lower test frequency for better accuracy. For
dc resistance, select a lower test frequency to minimize ac effects.
Because the reactive component most likely to be represented in a low resistance
resistor is series inductance, the “Series” is selected for a resistor below about
1kΩ. If a resistor large than 10MΩ, select “Parallel” that because the reactive
component most likely to be represent in a high resistance resistor is shunt
capacitance. If the Q is less than 0.1, the measured Rp is probably very close to
the dc resistance.

The total loss of a capacitor can be expressed in several ways, including D and
“ESR” (Equivalent Series Resistance). “ESR” is typically much larger than
actual “ohmic” series resistance of the wire leads and foils that are in series with
the heart of a capacitor physically, because ESR includes also the effect of
dielectric loss. ESR is related to D by the formula: ESR = Rs = D/ωCs. Where ω

only to capacitors in general. If the DC bias voltage is applied to device of low

The “nominal value” of an available frequency can be calculated from the proper
one of the three formulas.
The range of test frequency between 12Hz and 10kHz is for LCR-817/827,
between 12Hz and 100kHz for LCR-819/829, between 100Hz and 2kHz for
LCR-816/826, and between 12Hz and 200kHz for LCR-821. To select the test
frequency, just key in the desired frequency via these numerical keys, the LCR
Meters will take the nearest available test frequency from the 504 available test
frequencies automatically.

Measurement Displays:
The measured results can be shown on the LCD monitor in three ways:
: The measured quantities of R/Q, C/D, C/R, L/Q, Z/θ, L/R.
*The resolution of primary display (L, C, R or Z) is to be five

Measurement Modes:
Two modes are available: AUTO and MANUAL.
“AUTO” mode is measuring continuously, updating the display after each

“MANUAL” mode is activated by the START keypad, the measured result is
holding on the LCD monitor until next measurement started.
Average:
The AVERAGE of any number of measurements from 1 to 255 can be made as
desired in either of the two measurement modes.
Test Voltage:
The test voltage range for LCR-817/819/827/829/821 is from 5mV to 1.275V,
each step is 5mV, for LCR-816/826 is from 0.1V to 1.275V, each step is 5mV.
Note: When the test frequency is at 200kHz, the test voltage must be greater
than 100mV.
Memory:

DC Bias:
A 2V internal bias can apply to capacitors during measurement.
Up to 30VDC external bias can apply to capacitors during measurement via the
two terminals (located on the rear panel). The applied current should not over
